Lacrosse Drill: New Ideas for Ground Ball Practice

Very quickly three new players step up, and the drill repeats itself. I love the elements of competition and reward, and our players love it as well. To keep things fast-paced and with a minimum of players standing around, we generally break the team into groups of seven or eight, and let the groups work without a coach, rolling out their own ground balls as well as a having player stationed outside the line to receive the passes. Remember to keep a pile of balls by each starting line so you can keep things moving!
